Default TESCO..........where is all the petrol???

Ystrad, Cardiff Western Avenue and I think Culverhouse Cross very low on fuel and no 99 RON.

Throw back to the previous weeks fiasco I think

It takes 95/97 to make 99. So, all the 95 to supplement their stock in the Sarf East first and us suckers get to wait. Bah humbug

Only 94.9p for v power in Carmarthen, our tesco's doesn't sell 99 ron, even though it is brand spanking new. Saying that I'm more than happy with V power and properly wouldn't change even if they did.

Well I was at my local Shell garage putting more VPower in and I have noticed that everytime I go up there I see a few scoobs, this evening there was three of us there and one Evo and a FTO all filling up with VPower, it was like a mini Jap meet, very close and friendly, mind you the Shell garage in Pentwyn is a pretty tight squeeze at the best of times

None, am I missing out on something here, nobody has given me anything

Its quiet on here tonight, I think everybody is watching the Discovery channel with the Subaru engineers and the rally Im recording it and watching it, the little nipper wants to watch it tomorrow I think I bought the scoob because he loves them, but he wants a real scoob with a wing not a fake scoob (My wagon)

No way?! You haven't had any of the cards?

I've had two packets so far (fill up at least once a week, lol), they should just give them to you over the counter as you pay. If they don't, ask for them! They're like 'Top Trumps', pretty neat, lol.

I haven't really noticed, i don't post on here that much, just browse!

Hahah! Awww, fake scooooob

Default word of warning on the super

filled up today.. thought may as well give em a chance... MUST be okay now... been out of super here in north yorks since saturday.. delivery last night.. went to fill up.....

and


all I got was...... wooshhh wooosshhh wooosshhh like a really loud air noise... so now im starting to panic a little ... so i go gets lady out of shop... tells her listen.. she listens... guage is now at £20-00 is it air or petrol???? so says let me off the £20 and go to a different pump.. did.. that one was okay.. full tank of petrol for £15......

but now im starting to wonder a little.. so ran the car for a good half hour, up and down the gears, round rbouts etc etc and it seems okay.. checked on here and AFTER they drain the tanks which is what happened... when they fill them up again there is a chance of air...

I know this is long... but just wanted you to know
